Giannis Antetokounmpo's ascent to becoming one of the NBA's best players has left some observers in awe of his play, as his highlights are must-watch on a nightly basis.

While he's not a Hall of Famer yet, he's mentioned in the same sentence as other dazzling players over the years, and his career is entering just his sixth season. At Basketball-Reference, Giannis' early career arc is similar to those of stars like Tracy McGrady, Jimmy Butler, and Kevin Love through five seasons. However, none of those players had as impressive of a season as Giannis did in 2017-18, and he's leading the NBA in several advanced statistical categories in 2018-19.
